• Thursday 23 September 2021 Parking Could parents please park well away from the T junction it isn’t far to walk, even on a wet day. We have had several complaints from concerned parents and farmers with regard to the parking, resulting chicane style driving conditions, particularly as larger farm vehicles are turning in or out of Mill Lane. As the winter months approach, poor light will be a further hazard. Staff will be out with a high visibility vest over the next few weeks. This will hopefully slow down non-school traffic as well.
